Hello,
I’m a boy from Italy. I’d like to learn Japanese becouse I love manga and I want to read also manga which are not translated in Italian/English. I also enjoy to start reading kana in japanese toy boxes, anime and vg.Welcome!
Thank You, Joel-san.
I like cats, and my first senpai has a cute kitty avatar.I studied up season 3, but my pc is gone crash, so I’ve restarted to study Jap.
Well, it is a bit hard review everything, but is so: I understand whrited English, but I’m not so good.
So this big review has helped me to better understand the lessons
and the humor of Koichi-san.Please, can someone help me?
Often, I’ve not trouble to understand writed English, but sometimes I’ve hard time.
これ は だれ の 川 ですか？ だれ の 山 ですか？
I’m not able to understand the translation on anki.A- The Japanese question for me is that the speaker is asking who is the owner of the river (and mountain).
No much sense this question to me, but it is an exercise, so why not?B- But translation of “Whose river is this? Whose mountain?” with google is that the speaker is asking the name of the river(and mountain).
I rarely see “whose”, so I’m unsure about it.
To me google’s translation is wrong.
“Whose” is the posessive form of “who”. “Whose river is this?” = “who does this river belong to?”
ありがとう!
